What is the recycling code number on bottom? I'm wondering if they're alkali and heat resistant.

No code on the bottom, lightweight plastic, I wouldn't recommend using them over flame or to put very hot or caustic fluids in. We used them as "props" for a "mad scientist" birthday party, put colored water & small pieces dry ice in them.

There is no recycle number on the bottom and was made in China....my guess is no. But it does work well.

Although these cups are made from 20% recycled paper, the middle layer is made of an "insulating material". The product packaging doesn't state these are recycleable; the packaging on the Chinet paper plates does, so best guess is these should not be recycled.

The recycling code (number in a triangle) on the bottom is a "1" with "PET" directly underneath the triangle. I do not see any ID on the inner tube, but it is thicker and harder. I have a 50-50 Clorox-water mix, watered-down white vinegar and a 50-50 Murphy's Oil-water mix in each of my three. They are operating like new; probably more than a year now.

I am not sure. All I know is that after a couple of washings in the dishwasher one of them seems to have melted slightly. I now prefer to wash them by hand.

The recycling symbol on the bottom says "PP" with a 5 inside the triangle - not sure if that helps. There are no other markings about the materials. It is dishwasher safe, and made in China.

Doubt it... I haven't yet ordered this product, but intend to. If there is a "recycle" symbol on the jar, the number within will give some indication as to the kind of plastic used. I know that "5" is a particularly nefarious form of plastic... I will update this further get more specific info- unless someone beats me to the punch. Hope this helps... anyone else have something to add?

You should send these out with electronic waste and not put them in the regular trash. The lithium cells, even more so than the alkaline cells, can leach some pretty nasty stuff into the landfill and water table.

They are made of a hard plastic. They have a glossy finish inside and a matte finish outside. They have a rubber non-slip handle. They do not have a recycle number on the underside of the cup.

I was told they are if not you can return them. They worked for my heater. It works like New.

They do have a heat rating. I assume if you keep it under the correct temperature you should be ok.

Jerry I went and looked at the wrapper around the bottle and i am sorry to say it does not say. I would recommend going to rubbermaid web site and checking there. I know before I bought them I checked what number the plastic was and it was safe to reuse and that's why I bought them. i love them by the way.

I actually didn't see a recycling code on it. Sorry. It does say BPA free and dishwasher safe.

Good question, I don't have an official answer but my opinion is that they are not recyclable

Recycle code # is 2. I keep them at the top of my cellar stairs so they are not in a heated area, but are not outside either. High in my area was 2 degrees F this winter ... No problems with the bins.

They are thin cardboard except the tape/adhesive strip on the closure. Most recyclers should have no problem with them as long as an excessive amount of additional (and probably unnecessary) tape has not been added.

I would say no. There is no recycle symbol on the label and the residue of the contents which are flammable would have to be washed out. There is also a caution about not comming in contact with the skin. My skin is sensative, but I have never had an issue with it.
